The Rescues - Before the fall

end of the day
sunburned road
i’m driving away
from my last hope
the city glistening
in vain in the valley below
how did we get off track
how did we get off track

take me back
back when the summer came
back when you cried my name
back when we had it all
back before the fall

passed the place
where you decided to stay
i can’t help myself
i can’t keep away
it’s like somebody stole the biggest piece of me
i may never see it again
i may never see you again

take me back
back when the summer came
back when you cried my name
back when we had it all
back before the fall

ghosts of mulholland calling me
shadows of could have been following me
leaves are falling from the trees
headlights can't help me see
there’s a fog-like darkness rolling in
but i know what's around the bend
a cold winds gonna come
a cold winds gonna come and

take me back
back when the summer came
back when you cried my name
back when we had it all
back before the fall
back when the summer rain
fell on your smiling face
i held you high above it all
back before the fall
